Abstract :
In view of the fact that were multiple paths between two domain ontology concepts and the traditional method for similarity computation only considered its most shortest path, this paper proposes an improved method for similarity computation of concepts in domain ontology, it considers all effective paths between two domain ontology concepts and the depth information of correspondent common father node. The experimental result indicates that this method can manifest the similar degree of two ontology concepts accurately.
